Smyth, Ciara - Not My Problem

Aideen has always been the fixer for her friends. No problem is too big or too small for her to handle, from stealing confiscated phones to breaking into parties. All she asks in return is a favor, and her friends always come through.

But Aideen's own life is a mess. Her mam's drinking again, her best friend Holly is avoiding her, and she's skipping school. When Aideen tries to fix her own problems, she only makes them worse.

Then she meets Sasha, a new girl at school who's just as tough and independent as Aideen. Sasha doesn't need Aideen's help, and at first, Aideen is drawn to her independence. But as she gets to know Sasha better, Aideen realizes that she's not as alone as she thought.
